Infowars wouldn't be a site I would consider totally legit. But since it's an opinion and not news piece then I guess that's irrelevant.

Conservatives are trying to turn themselves into victims of the "liberal media" in this. They cite people like Olbermann and Paul Krugman like they're journalists but they're just pundits. What they are saying is only their own opinion.

So far, just from the straight news reporting, I've heard that the shooter was a "liberal", obsessed with mind control, and obsessed with currency. I've even read one news story that had pictures from his place which allegedly showed an "occult altar" (but really looked to me like what a typical, single, stoner would possibly have in their house).

Sounds like a hodge podge of all sorts of things, but the currency issues are obsessions among some on the far right. So you can throw a bit of that into the mix, but not exclusively.

Guys, the shooter is crazy. He's not left or right. He has no systematic view of the currency situation, or any other situation. He's freaking nuts.

That's what gets me in all this. Left and right scream about which side the shooter was on, when the answer has to be neither- he's just crazy. But the political class never lets a good crisis go to waste and that's what is disturbing. They want to finish looting us and make it seem like WE are in the wrong to even complain about it.

I see where you are coming from. As the article points out though, the Discovery Channel Shooter was an environmental whacko, and nobody more mainstream media than Rush Limbaugh asked Al Gore to turn down HIS rhetoric.

The real test will be if officials, not media, use this to trot out anti-constitutional legislation to tamp down on criticism of their looting.
